Passing time until hunting season.. And got to thinking

We've all seen those only one bow questions (and hated them).....but here it is with a twist.
You can only own one bow.  Which would it be?  The twist is that you can only choose a bow that you've never owned before.


Mine would be a Stewart Slammer.  I've never even handled one, but there isn't a single negative post I've been able to find about them.

I'd sure like to have Centaur's Big Jim ThunderChild.  I've reminded him a couple times that should he ever want to sell it, I'd sure like to be in line for it.
 

I'de like to have an old bear takedown.  I like longbows mostly but there is just something about them old takedowns that I love.

Love that thin sexy handle on a pronghorn

Probably a Squatch, I've shot most of the other one's I'd like

That's a tough one. The hard part is thinking of a bow I haven't owned at one time or another.  

Oh wait, I've got it. A Tall Tines!

Hmmmmm.

A Java Man Duoflex of around 50#.

One of Dean Torges osage self bows 62"  50-55lbs without question.

69 b handle 3 limbs at 60# radiused shelf no doubt! If it worked for Fred it would work for me....

Easy.
1967 64" Super Kodiak.  
42-46#

A Java Man Elkheart 56" 52 @ 26......it's been on order since Jan.but I don't own it yet so it's legal.  

Whippenstick, TD.

One of Big Jim's sounds pretty good

I'm a longbow man and I would love to own an Ed Scott Horn bow.

Silver tip

Black Widow PMAX 60" 50@28. Macasser Ebony riser and Myrtle Burl limbs.

stewart LIL slammer

Black Mountain Sheepeater Spirit recurve

I am a die-hard fan of the two bows I shoot, both Black Widows.  

But if I were going to go with a different bowyer... I'd go for a 64" Cari-bow Silver Fox 3-piece longbow at 62# @ 31" draw.  

I like Bob Lee recurves a lot, too.  But the Cari-bow is what I'd buy, and I've done a lot of thinking outside of that "Black Widow" box over the past couple of years.

BUT, back to reality... if I were going to spring for another bow right now, it would be a Black Widow PLX with nearly the same specs as the one I have now, only about 10# heavier.

64" 2pc Toelke Whip.  Or maybe a Bob Lee Ultimate with Stabi-lock and...longbow limbs.  

Threeunder get a Slammer, they are wonderful longbows.
